Lately, I’ve been in a funk. I’ve been grumbling about the million little things still left to do for my upcoming wedding, complaining about the five extra pounds that insist on clinging to me, and ranting about the fact that the appliances in our new house don’t exactly match. Which is why today’s trunk show at Town Home couldn’t have come at a better time.

From 10 a.m.-8 p.m. (wine and cheese are set out at 6 p.m.!), Town Home will be debuting Gratitude Etc.’s brand-new, totally lust-worthy line of 14K-, 18K- and 22K-gold handcrafted bangles (shown), along with a few pendants and cufflinks. But, oh, the bangles! Each is engraved with “Gratitude is the most precious jewel,” a sweet reminder to be thankful for what you’ve got (instead of walking around cranky and cantankerous like, um, me). And they’re customizable, so you can choose your metal, stones, diamonds and inscription.

So drop in, meet Gratitude Etc. founder Liz Flavin, and snag one of her pieces (10 percent of all purchases go one of three charities — Living Beyond Breast Cancer, Laurel House or Women’s Way — you choose which). And, well, it’s quite easy to be grateful when you’ve got one of Liz’s oh-so-stackable, semi-precious-stone-and-diamond-studded gold bangles encircling your wrist. As far as being grateful for mismatched appliances? I’ll have to work on it.
